Hello everybody,
This is the beginning of a project that I have been mulling over for a while now. The question was simple; how can I thematically field all my existing models together while still leaving them as forces with individual identities? The answer was…Drachenfels.
As any ghoul know, Drachenfels was a kind of Old World Dracula; a semi-immortal enchanter who looked down on the Chaos powers but had daemons and mutants in his entourage. He was famously skilled at necromantic magic and used a large undead army to invade Bretonnia, but he fought against Sigmar with a goblin army and used beastmen and ogres to guard the approaches to his castle. Basically, he doesn’t discriminate.
So this is the plan; to paint up the three main forces that I have (undead, goblins & beastmen) as individual armies, and also come up with a way to tie them together as an army of darkness under Constant Drachenfels.
As my first step on this long and lonely road, here is what I have currently painted. I’m quite new to this painting log business, so any comments and criticism will be gratefully received.
Firstly, a skeleton horde (of 8).
